Government and Public Policy

Government and Public Policy Round Table, 26-28 August 2015 

During this watershed moment in history everything is being affected including our economies. In the midst of this uncertainty however there are solutions, grounded in Christian tradition, faith and thought, which can help Europe’s leaders to restore human endeavor in meaningful relationship to one another and to God. Two promising possibilities are Relational Thinking and the Jubilee Economics. Relational Thinking involves learning to see life from the perspective of relational well-being as opposed to the viewpoints of individualism and materialism. The Jubilee Economics recognises that value creation is more effective and sustainable when all of the stakeholders in a business are considered and not just the shareholders.

Aim:
This invitation-only round table meeting will focus on using these paradigms to create practical strategies for:

  • Improving long-term productivity at regional, national and European levels
  • Reducing government, corporate and private debt
  • Stimulating innovation and reducing youth unemployment
  • Helping to curb the influx of refugees by combatting desertification

Who should attend:
Public policy makers, politicians, think-tank members, CEO’s, banking and financial professionals, leaders of charities and NGO’s, etc.
